Fountain; glacial stream, from :\Iala9pina glacifr, debouching between Sitkagi bluffs 

 and Icy bay. So named by Russell in 1891. 



Fovintain; sunken rock, near ^Middleton island, Gulf of Alaska. Descriptive name 

 given by the Russians. 



Four Mountains; a group of volcanic islands just west of Umnak, in the eastern 

 Aleutians, was discovered by the Russians at an early day and called 

 ostrova chetierek sopochnie, i. e.. Islands of the Four Craters, or Islands of 

 the Four Mountains, as they are usually called. The group consists of 

 five principal islands, though on many charts only four are shown. Our 

 knowledge of the group, still very imperfect, has been considerably 

 improved by the work of the U. S. S. Concord, there in 1894. Their Aleut 

 name, according to Veniaminof, is Unigun, or, according to Sauer, 1790, 

 Oone-agun. Sarichef, who was the first to give any details, says (Phillips 

 Voyages, vol. 6, pp. 4-5) on May 30, 1791, "we fell in with the four vol- 

 canic islands which take their names from the four craters which they 

 contain. They lie contiguous to each other and bear distinct names. That 

 to the southwest is called Ulaga; that northeast, Tschiginsk; that to the 

 north, Tana; and that to the southeast, Chagamil." The names applied 

 by different authorities are as shown below, but this correlation is to a 

 considerable extent conjectural.

Fourpeaked; mountain, near the western entrance to Cook inlet. Descriptive term, 

 given by the Russians, who called it Gora chetierek glavaia, i. e., mountains 

 with four heads. On one chart Chetierek (four) has been written Tapirag 

 and the peak called Mount Tapirag. 



Fox; l)ay, indenting the eastern shore of Stepovak bay, Alaska 2:)eninsula. So called 

 by Dall in 1880. 



Fox; cape, on the mainland, at eastern end of Dixon entrance. Xamed by Van- 

 couver, in 1793, after the Right Hon. Charles James Fox. 



Fox; cape, on the southern shore of Alaska peninsula, northeast of the Shumagins. 

 Named Leesy (fox) by the Russians. 



Fox; cape, the northernmost point of Little Tanaga (or possibly Kagalaska) island, 

 Andreanof group, middle Aleutians. Apparently named (fox) by the 

 Russians, though I have not found this in any Russian map or book. On 

 United States Hydrographic chart No. 8, made from reports by the United 

 States North Pacific Exploring Expedition, of 1855, occurs the entry "C. 

 Lises (Fox cape)." 



Fox; creek, tributary to Eldorado river, from the west, Seward peninsula. Xame 

 from Barnard, 1900.
